EE launch the Jay

Back in the 90’s there was a group called Jamiroquai headed up by Jay Kay. He used to date Denise Van Outen too. Oh, and he owns loads of sports cars. Lucky, lucky blighter.
Anyhoo. EE have named a tablet after him and, somehow, I though that the first paragraph would be a witty introduction to it. Perhaps not. The device costs £119.99 on EE pay-as-you-go plans. You can pay £16 per month with an up-front cost of £29.99 if you want it on contract over 24 months, and existing customers can get a 10% discount on that. For £18.50 per month you can get 10GB of data.

If you buy it before May 26th EE will give you a 3 month NOW TV Entertainment pass.

The Jay, available from today in stores and online, offers the styling and performance of a premium tablet, with a Quad-core 1.0GHz 64-Bit processor, which runs the Android 5.1 Lollipop operating system. The Jay also lets users connect to EE’s double speed 4G network, offering download speeds of up to 150Mbps.

Film buffs and amateur photographers will love the 7.85 inch IPS display that’s perfect for watching rich, vibrant videos and displaying crystal clear images captured on the device’s 5MP rear-facing camera with built-in auto-focus. Turn the tablet over and the Jay from EE features a 2MP front-facing camera, perfect for sharing selfies, videos and photos with friends and family over EE’s superfast 4G network.

The Jay from EE comes with 1GB RAM and 16 GB internal memory, with additional 32GB of storage space available with a Micro SDHC card*. The tablet is designed to serve as a true multimedia hub, whether you’re sitting on the sofa at home or commuting to work. At just 350g, it is ultra-light and incorporates a large 3,600mAh battery with enough power for 7 full hours of usage. The Jay is a powerful and portable device for connecting to the web, playing online games or streaming music and HD videos.
Sharon Meadows, Director of Devices, EE said: “The Jay from EE offers the perfect blend of style and smart performance at an affordable price point. With double speed 4G on our superfast network, it really does offer one of the best value tablet experiences that will keep users connected on the move”.
